What happens underneath a terrace? When we admire a beautiful terrace, we usually focus on the surface. But the real work happens underneath. These images perfectly illustrate the important role that #Geotextiles play in creating a durable and stable foundation. A separation and drainage geotextile performs two essential functions: 1️⃣ Separation ✔️ Separates different soil layers, such as natural ground and gravel. ✔️ Prevents fine soil particles from mixing with the aggregate. ✔️ Keeps the base layer stable and minimizes settlement over time. ✔️ Helps terraces, pavements and walkways remain level and durable. 2️⃣ Drainage 💧 Allows water to pass through while retaining fine soil particles. 💧 Enables rainwater to reach the drainage layer or drainage pipe without obstruction. 💧 Prevents waterlogging and protects foundations and paved surfaces from moisture damage. #Geotextiles are produced around the world on AUTEFA Solutions Needlepunch lines. They are an essential component in a wide range of civil engineering applications—from private gardens and landscaping projects to roads, railways and large-scale infrastructure. Sometimes the most important part of a construction project is the one you never see. 👉 Learn more about AUTEFA Solutions Needlepunch lines for geotextile production: https://lnkd.in/ewdH3EzW A special thank you to Helen H. for sharing these photos from her garden project 🙂 #AUTEFASolutions #Needlepunch #NeedlepunchLines #Nonwovens #Geotextiles #CivilEngineering #Infrastructure #Landscaping #OurTechnologyForYourSuccess
